"Easy-Going Guitar Drives" with The Cure Influence
Obscure Sound highlighted the track's "easy-going guitar drives and accompanying music video—aptly depicting good times and fun, silly jubilation in a sun-soaked city." The review drew connections to The Cure, noting how "the initially melancholic guitar work showcases that darkened tint—while ensuing bursts of guitars and delectably lush vocals conjure a more modern shine."
The blog particularly praised the song's dynamic evolution, noting that "an especially enthusiastic vocal push arrives past the four-minute mark, weaving in seamlessly as the bouncy bass and surf-y guitar work converge wonderfully."
